Yup, and he was properly shocked. Ngannou was/is properly strong, that real functional strength that comes from rolling with people, not weights...
Prime Holyfield is every cruiser and heavyweight's nightmare in a one off best v best scenario. He brutalises Del boy, stops AJ by half way, stops...

Holyfield simply doesn't lose to Mike. Ever. One of those things. Like the sun coming up every morning....
